Concept explainers

Work and Heat Transfer

It is generally related to thermal engineering which tells about the use, creation, conversion and transfer of heat energy between the systems. It is also considered that to transfer heat from one source to another, transfer of masses is also required. There are various mechanisms by which, transfer of heat takes place i.e. thermal conduction, convection, radiation or by change of phase. All these mechanisms have their own specific features which sometimes occur simultaneously within the same system.

A piston cylinder assembly initially contains 5 kg of water, a saturated liquid-vapor mixture at a pressure of 100 kPa. 2 kg of water is in liquid phase and the rest is in vapor phase. In this state, the piston is on the stoppers. Then there is heat transfer to water, pressure rises and when 150 kPa the piston movesbegins to do. Heat transfer continues until the total volume is twice the initial volume. According to this; a) Draw the T-v and P-v diagram of the process. b) Initial and final temperatures, c) Calculate the mass of water in the liquid phase when the piston starts to move upwards.
